Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia, affecting more than 4% of the population over the age of 60. 1,2 AF can be divided into permanent and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). PAF is defined as at least two separate episodes of AF that terminate spontaneously in less than 7 days, usually within 24 hours. 3 These episodes of AF last greater than 30 seconds and are not related to a reversible cause.
What Is Paroxysmal Atrial Tachycardia? Paroxysmal atrial tachycardia is a type of arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat). Paroxysmal means that the episode of arrhythmia begins and ends abruptly. Atrial means that arrhythmia starts in the atria or upper chambers of your heart. Tachycardia means that the heart is beating abnormally fast. Paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (PAT) is also known as paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). Other types of tachycardia that start in the atria include atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
